As I've seen it stated a few dozen times; Google is your best friend when researching any animal you're interested in. That being said, I've never heard of a dwarf Burmese until now. Only the dwarf and super dwarf retics. Google, here I come!

Re: Dwarf Burmese python
Dwarf burms most certainly do exist.
I don't know much about them that doesn't apply to burms in general, except that they are smaller, not as easy to find, and pretty pricey compared to a normal burm hatchling.
I think Twin Cities Reptiles (a local reptile pet store near where I live) has one however, sure is a looker!

Re: Dwarf Burmese python
As far as how they are ? Biter / hisser.. Its a toss up really kinda like most snakes they all have their own personallity. Sometimes you win and other times ya don't..lol
Depends also how much time you hold and interact with your snakes.

Re: Dwarf Burmese python
Dwarf Burms do exist, but there are a few issues...
-They are 90% WC
-They only get about 6-7 ft
-There is NO Pure dwarf burm morphs.
-They are biters, and do not make great pets.
-They are quite expensive for a WC snake.
This being said, they do not have the same patten as a normal Burm at all.
normal Burms have saddles, where the dwarfs have more of a labyrinth feel.

You can get CB Dwarfs...I do have one that will be breedable hopefully next season...
There are Half Dwarf burms out there...But much of the morphs need to be bred down using the pure dwarfs as the base...
Once again, be very careful because there are only a handful of breeders with actual half dwarfs...Many are selling underfed/sized burms as dwarfs or half dwarfs...
Let me know if you want to know about where to get some dwarfs and I can point you in the right direction...
AND YES, THEY CAN BE VERY PISSY (many refer to them as the "Spawns of Satan" or "Demon Seeds")!!!! I'm lucky and have a girl that is pretty good, little hissy, but that's it for now...But like all snakes, things can change down the road...

I have seen the dwarf burm at TCR - I had a long talk with the owner too. Beautiful snake, but 'very mean.' Onwer says she is WC and not handlable and that in his 30 + years, they all have simular tempermants. The one he has is quite a looker though. At the time he and I spoke, he was asking $850 for her, but warned that she was 'nasty.'

Re: Dwarf Burmese python
Is this nasty attitude more because they're mostly wild caught? How is the temperament of the CBB ones?
Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus

I fail to recognize how one can have 30 yrs experience in dealing with an animal which was only introduced to the pet trade roughly eight years ago and in very small numbers. If he has a wild caught dwarf burm, it is most assuredly going to be very pissy considering what stress and possible treatment it endured before landing in his care, let alone the fact that it IS a wild caught caught snake which is just naturally going to be worse tempered/more flighty than a CBB.
